So Villa/Olbion on WM were saying we were on our 'bad run '
As well as a few Wolves fans getting a bit nervous so here's some facts...
Brighton lost 9 and Newcastle 10 last season and finished 1st and 2nd.
Mid December we were 7 points clear of 2nd and 3rd....end of January 9 clear of 2nd and 11 from 3rd.
19 games left....win 9-10 and we're up and still have to play all the bottom sides.
Our bad run consists of going 2 games without a win.
But...
The only thing that scares me now is our squad size! Having got rid of 8-9 this month to me lacks squad depth and any injuries to key players could cost us......we need 2-3 imo to steady the ship .....
Bad run?

Don't quite understand the "Having got rid of 8-9 this month" comment 55. The only players who have left so far this month who have featured for the first team are Price and Ronan. The other 4 Evans, Oniangué, Deslandes and Zyro were never going to play first team football anyway.
But that aside I do agree that a striker is a priority, a right wingback to give Doc a break and another creative centre mid would put us in a very strong place.

Not sure it will happen this window but would like to think that we will make a big push for a creative attacking midfielder by next season rather than playing two defensive minded ones though not sure that will happen given Nuno is a defence first coach.
Tricky game Saturday against a side that will just try and play spoiler regardless of being at home but so long as we can defend the box it will leave them carrying little threat, perhaps a game for Batth.

2/3rds of the clubs in the league have scored fewer goals than Ipswich, including Forest, so complacency is definitely not the order of the day.

Perhaps, but only two sides have fewer shots per game than them and 3/4 of the league have conceded less than them.
Also third worst disciplinary side with 56 bookings so will have to watch ourselves

Ipswich have the 5th best home record in the division, 5th highest scorers in home games and only two teams have won a higher % of home games. So they are a decent home team. The weakness in their game is a poor defensive record, but to our advantage that gives our forwards no excuse not to open them up and get back on the goal trail

I see the bloke who owns has just gone from 9.8 billion to 10.6 billion apparently. ......

An increase of 0.8 billion.
If shared equally amongst 20,000 season ticket holders that would be £40,000 each
